Helicopter in sky, Conducting airborne geophysical surveysSVBGSA is happy to announce that the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), together with Ramboll, GEI, Sinton Helicopters, and SkyTEM, will conduct airborne geophysical surveys in the Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin starting mid-July. Surveys will help improve understanding of groundwater resources and support local management efforts in their goals to implement the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA.)
